Not I'm the Business.

For several days past numbers OF
people have called at the APPEAL
office to purchase agricultural ma
chinery. They inferred from the
high piles of reapers and mowers
before our door, that we had ad-
ded a machinery department to the
paper.
These machines belong to E. b.
Rail who has monopolized our
front sidewalk to exhibit his goods.
We have concluded that he has a
large amount of cheek, but then
again he has a large amount of ma
chinery, great deal of trade
and he is a steady advertiser in this
journal.

New York, Aug 81 he Times
in an editorial SAYS: The address
of George William Curtis was IA s.
passionate presentation of the ton-
dition and prospects of the c vii
Service Reform cause. The diff
culties in the Presidents path have
been very great, and the party
pressure in the sense in which the
term is generally taken is not tie
only one nor perhaps the greatest
when allowance has been made for
the President on account of the dif-
| ficulties of his task and the tremen-
dous pressure of politicians. 1t
would be well if he could be in
duced to reflect upon the sources
of his own strength. What carried
him to his present condition was
not yielding to party pressure but
resisting it. If anything should de-
stroy his splendid chances for fur
Their service in behalf OF the Nation
it would be yielding his personal
sense of right and his staunch ad-
herence to principles to the delus-
i've demands of party experience. !.
The Sun, in an editorial, says:
As between George William Curtis,
the Mugwump, and a large number
of Democrats, it must be said that
Curtis shows a greater disposition
to tell the truth.
The Tribune says: Are the Mug
:wumps getting ready to desert the
Cleveland ship? Il certainly looks
so; and judging from the speech
which George William Curtis de-
livered at Newport yesterday, he
will be the first man of the con-
tingent to retreat over the gang
plank.
The World SAYS: The President |
has been a reformer in words, GER
tainly. A very general partisan
of the Civil Service |
has contained a precedent, under
which the Republicans would again
seize the officers upon a change IN
If the reformers |
had been earlier with their criticism |
and more prompt with regrets it is
possible that thy would have had |
less ground now for disappointment.

McBRIERTY,S DEATH.

How n False Repute of it
Raised Trouble i'm California.
A few days ago a beautiful young
lady in Oakland who was reading
the MORNING APPEAL, suddenly
gave a shrek and fell to the floor
unconscious. After she was partly
restored her friends looked all over
the paper to see what had affected
her. Meanwhile she was filling
the air with shrieks.
"The poor boy is dead the poor
boy is dead"
Along i'll the afternoon she had
got sufficiently cooled down to point
out the terrible paragraph. 1t was
in report of the big baseball game
and read:
cat the end of the fifth inning
McBrierty, of the Amateurs, was
left dead on his base"
This was the sad news that al
most killed the girl.
The matter was explained to the
lady at once, that cleft dead on
base" meant that the side was put
out, and somebodody on a base
wasn't allowed to complete his un-
finished run.
On hearing the explanation the
lady revived, and was playing lawn
tennis inside of an hour as lively as
anybody.

THE BALL GAME.
Carson Loses the Fight After
u Game Match.

There was great excitement yes
terday over the Hawthorne bal
game. Every half hour dispatches
came over the wires, and everybody
was hungry for the news. The fol-
| lowing report reached the APPEAL
from Hy Doane, it's special reporter
| HAWTHORNE, :10.-Game called
Esmeralda at bat. Betting to 5
on Amateurs. Best of feeling all
round.
Game lively; betting 5 to 3 on
Amateurs. First inning 0 to 0.
Second inning, Esmeralda to o.
End of third inning, one to moth
ing, in favor of Esmeralda.
Fourth inning, to / in favor OF
Carson.
Nothing more came from the
special reporter until the 9TH in
ming, when 1t was announced
Carson 5, Hawthorne 4.
This news caused great hilaritv
on the streets.
At the end of the last inning
came the news that Carson was
beaten by a score of 9 to 8.
The game closed at AS; time OF
game 3 hours and 35 minutes.
The result will make a difference
of about IS 900 to Carson, as they
were heavily backed by local
sports.

A lady who called at the APPEAL
office yesterday incidentally men
rioned that she was going to San
Francisco some day next week.
The writer mechanically started to
make a note of it, when the lady,
with an anxious face said:
"Oh, Heavens, don't say word
about it in the paper. If yon do,
my friends will just load me down
with errands and commissions"
She'd evidently been there.

ART SALE.
4 Rare Chance for Picture
Buyers.

There is now on exhibition at tn,
Opera House about fifty oil paint
ings from the brushes of leadin.
| San Francisco artists. There are
works of more or less excellence
bat a very much better class of pic
lures than one usually sees in the
auction room.
The exhibition opened last even.
ing, and at the solicitation. of a
good many people the pictures will
remain on exhibition today between
the hours of 10 and A.
The best of the lot are from the
brush of Holdredge, who is today
the best interpreter of Nature in
California. Holdredge, unlike most
of the California painters, does not
have to travel a hundred miles to
find picturesque piece of scenery
that just suits. He can sit down
anywhere and find material for
good work, and transfer rare bits of
nature to his canvas that other;men
have overlooked.
Hundreds of men pass over
pieces of the earth that he catches
up and throws on his canvas, where
it is recognized at once, and all
wonder that they never saw its
beauties before. His foliage effects
are unapproached by any other
artist on the Coast. He wastes no
time in detail, but masses his eff
fects in bold way, and then throw
ing in his sunlight and shadow,
gives you an effect that is SIMPLY
natural.
Among his best are Mt. Owen,
Monterey Bay, Cascade Range,
Black Hills, Sunset Scene, and
dozen other minor pieces, all per-
feet in atmospheric and minor
effects, and one, the sunset scene,
is almost as rich in color as Turner's
best skies. The scene at Monterey
and its companion piece represents
the dull, foggy sky of the Southern
coast of California before a storm,
with the waves climbing on the
beach, and the trees bending under |
the rising wind.
Collins has contributed two fine
scenes in the Rocky Mountains, full |
of detail and rich in color effects.
Durand has four strong pictures, |
representing Eastern scenes, and
one of the Yellowstone Park.
Armstrong and Scott have some
excellent landscapes, and there is |
one figure, ''The Gypsy Queen"
and landscape by Gilbert.
There are several scenes from
Iahoe and ovens Lakes, and the |
collection will repay a visit. An
student can find as good a
sermon in these pictures as he can
in the churches, and nothing can be
pleasauter than an afternoon stroll
through the Opera House studying
these paintings.
There will be an auction sale on
Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings, and those who contem-
plate buying will do well to drop in
and inspect the collection and fix on
he pictures they contemplate buy
ng.
About six years ago Mr.. Pollock,
who has charge of this sale
brought a similar collection here.
md Carsonites secured some fine
pictures at low figures.

A Dow Law Decision.

A decision has been rendered by the
circuit court at Hillsboro, which, If sus-
tained, will practically nullify the local
option feature of the Dow law. 1t Is to
the effect that saloonists may sell liquor
upon the prescription of a physician;
or in other words, that there is nothing
in the constitution of the State which
prevents anyone from filling a pre-
scription of this nature. The town OF
Hillsboro voted for local option and
closed up the saloons. They shortly
afterward reopened for the sale of
temperance drinks. Then they CON-
menced the sale of liquor under the
conditions above mentioned. Proceed
ings were instituted against them in
Common Pleas Court and they were
found guilty of violating the Dow law
and heavily fined. The case was ap-
pealed to the Circuit Court, which re-
versed the decision. The case will be
taken to the Supreme Court at once

Transplanting Evergreen shrubs.

Many failures occur from lack OF
proper treatment Mt transplanting
There is no more beautiful shrub Of
this kind, than our native Laurel
Improperly so called, as it is not a
LaureD, KdlnasG ldtitoEid, also called
ssCalico Bush 1t is very rarely seen
In cultivation, and there is a general
belief that it cannot be transplanted
from the woods, but if we would have
it in our grounds, we must get nursery
grown trees. We know of d great adj
nlirer Of this shrub, who imported it
from an English nursery. while itcgrew
by thousands within few miles Of his
place. Yet this shrub can be trans
planted as readily as willow, if one
will, at transplanting it, cut it back,
to remove every leaf. This appears
like severe treatment, but unless one
will cut the beautiful shrub back to a
naked stem, lie had better leave it
where it grew, for it will surely fail.
Treated thus, success is certain rs
with any other shrub. In due time
the naked stem will break pro-
ducing an abundance of new shoots,
and by autumn will be supplied with
abundant foliage. Having done this
and seen it done BY Others, it may be
tried with full confidence Of success.
We have no doubt that other shrubs of
this class, if OH their removal from the
nursery were treated in the same man
ner, \ oui,i succeed more frequently
thas ies ttNW do. Yet few have the
coar ~, when they pay d dollar, more
or less. for Il shrub, to mutilate it in
this manner. Still it is worth trying.

eve have changed the old style of
carrying on the cutlery business" said
a manufacturer recently to a reporter
for the Nail and Express. ''Iustead of
importing knives. scissors, razors,
shears, and seythes, we are now ex-
porting them. You will find various
tools, such as saws, chisels. and planes
of American make, in many Of the
large warehouses of English cities.'
''In the manufacture of what kind
of cutlery do Americans excelP
'.Knife blades, razor blades, and
axes. In the latter. the United States
has made such advances that it excels
all other countries excepting, perhaps,
Canada. In 1872 there was imported
into the country cutlery to the value
of $10.500,000, which was cut down to
5000, 900 in 1882. In 1882 about $780,
600 worth of domestic goods were sent
abroad. Last year the imports were
less than $500, 90. and the exports were
more than $2,000,000.
Good table knives are made of iron
and steel welded together. The blade
is OF steel and the shoulders aud the
part that goes into the handle, called
teehinally the tang, are of iron. The
blade is made from sheet or cast steel;
the tang is forged from bar iron.
Knife blades and other small articles
are usually forged into shape while
still attached to the bar, which serves
for the workmen to hold them by.
Two men are employed in forging such
work. The principal workman, or
foreman, as he is sometimes called,
has small hammer of from two to
four pounds in weight. while the ham,
norman wields the sledge-hammer,
weighing from ten to fifty pounds.
The foreman directs the Zimmerman,
whose blows merely follow those Of the
small directing hammer, In drawing
down or reducing bar both in length
and width the fiat face of the hammer
is used, but when the length or breadth
only is to be extended the narrow
edge of the hammer is used.
s'The cavity in the razor blade is
made by hammering the blade on
small round-faced anvil. The notch
or nail-hole in a pennyknife is struck
with a chisel."
sAre cheap knives made in the same
manner as the more expensivepp
mo; common knives are made en-
tirely of iron, and the difference in
price arises not merely from the diff
ference in the cost of material but
from the greater facility Of working.
Forks are wrought into shape as
though single prong was all that was
necessary. They are then shaped out
with stamping die. I
''Are not grinding and polishing
very injurious work to the men en-
ployed?'
u Yes, on account of the particles of
steel which enter the nostrils Of the
workingmen and which causes pain
full Irritation and produces a disease
called grinders asthma. Few grind
ers live to be over 40 years of age.
Many experiments have been tried to
remedy this evil. A magnetic mouth
piece was invented, but for some rea-
son or other the men will not wear it.
A revolving fan to create current
and carry off the dust is very success
full, but even this the men oppose. -
